    What a marvelous find, and I'm pretty sure it is hand done.

    It's beautiful! Some of the fabrics sure look like feed sacks to me. I wore lots of feed sack dresses when I was young.

    What a beautiful quilt. That is hand stitched. You are very lucky to find this for $5.00.

    It's beautiful. I'm glad you rescued it. It is feed sacks. I have some of the same prints.
